Hey you —
The woman standing in front of the mirror, trying not to cry because you barely recognizes the person looking back.
I see you.
Because I was you.
You pull on jeans that used to fit and tell yourself, “It’s fine.”
You scroll past old photos, remembering what it felt like to be confident in your own skin.
You dread pictures, avoid mirrors, and keep promising yourself, “I’ll start next week.”
But deep down, you’re scared.
Scared that you’ll never get back to feeling like you.
Let me tell you something that changed everything for me:
You’re not broken.
You’re just overwhelmed.
You’ve Been Carrying Too Much for Too Long
You’ve spent years taking care of everyone else: your kids, your job, your home, your family… and somewhere along the way, you forgot to take care of yourself.
You’re constantly pouring out, running on empty, and convincing yourself that exhaustion is normal.
But it’s not your fault.
You’ve been told that being a “good mom” means putting yourself last.
That you should be able to juggle it all: career, kids, marriage, meals, and somehow, yourself.
And now, you feel like you’re drowning in your own life.
I’ve been there… sitting in the car after dropping my kids off, holding back tears because I didn’t even recognize the woman staring back in the rearview mirror.
It wasn’t that I didn’t want to change. I just didn’t know how anymore.
Waiting for the “Perfect Time” Keeps You Stuck
You keep waiting for motivation to magically appear.
For life to calm down.
For the “perfect time” to start taking care of yourself again.
But what if this is the time?
What if the version of you who’s exhausted, frustrated, and ready for change is the perfect place to begin?
Because here’s the truth: motivation doesn’t come first, momentum does.
And momentum starts with one tiny step.
Start Small. Start Messy. Start Tired, But Start.
You don’t need to overhaul your life overnight.
You just need to do something.
Go for a 10-minute walk.
Drink a glass of water before your coffee.
Eat one balanced meal today.
You don’t need to do everything; you just need to start doing something.
And when you do it again tomorrow, you’ll start proving to yourself that change is possible.
She’s Still in There
That confident, happy, strong version of you?
She never left.
She’s just been buried under the noise, the stress, the responsibilities, and the years of putting everyone else first.
But she’s still there.
Waiting for you to remember her.
You don’t have to wait until you’ve “figured it all out” to begin.
You just have to start acting like the woman you want to become, even if it feels hard right now.
Because once you take that first step, you’ll realize: she was never gone.
She was just waiting for you to come back home. ❤️
